Mahatma Gandhi Setu is NOT the longest bridge anymore. The longest bridge is in Kerala now connecting Idapalli to Vallarpadam in Kochi

http://www.walkthroughindia.com admin

Hello Manick, I am agree that Vembanad Rail Bridge is the longest bridge in India and second one is Nehru Setu in bihar on Sone river. Both of these bridges are railway bridges not road bridges, my listing are road bridges. Any way thanks for comment my next post will be on long railway bridges in India.

Don’t forget ‘Ponte Conde de Linhares’ bridge in Goa. It is not as magnificent as the bridges listed above but then it was built in 1633 (first major bridge of India) by then portugal viceroy of India. It is an extension of a cause way with same name and is 3.2 km in total so it is sometimes considered as longest bridge in the word at that time (1633).

Thanks, will add this too.

The photo of the so called “Brahmaputra Bridge” is wrong there is no bridge with that name. There are three bridges upon the Brahmaputra. You may be talking about Kolia Bhumura Bridge near Kaziranga. Please update with correct pics.
